Re: Grading Troy Dannen's First "100 Days"
Coach Dunleavy should be in Houston yucking it up with his fellow NCAA coaches, AAU coaches. He should also be lining up quality OOC games. Speaking of OOC MBB scheduling, I heard Dan Majerle on the Dan Patrick show today. He's the head coach at Grand Canyon University. They just finished their 3rd...

Re: UCONN Series
Spoon breaks up the no-hitter with a grand slam! Wave still down, 7-4, T6. UConn pitcher was perfect through 5 innings.

Re: Weather for Storrs, Ct
Because it's baseball. They don't play in the rain, either. When I was 10, we'd play in the rain all summer. So, does that make everyone else soft? Also, a player reacting slower due to the cold isn't going to possibly get killed in football the way he could if he gets hit by a line drive in baseba...

Re: Weather for Storrs, Ct
I didn't say they don't ever play in cold weather. But I have seen MLB games cancelled due to cold. And MLB is dealing with 162 games x 30 teams, so they're limited as to what they can do regarding scheduling. College baseball is a different animal. Just because they CAN play in cold weather doesn't...

Re: Weather for Storrs, Ct
At the same time, it's not reasonable to think that UConn won't play any home conference series until May. High Schools and other Amateur leagues are starting up this week. Heck, I remember many years ago going to opening day at Yankee Stadium with snow falling. Maybe not May, but another week or t...

Re: Mike Dunleavy will be Tulane's new BB coach
It was easier to get teams to come to Fogleman back in the 80's when it actually seated over 5K. Over the years its gotten smaller and smaller.

Re: Weather for Storrs, Ct
The snow forecast is very touch and go, but not expected until Sunday night into Monday. It really wasn't right to schedule games AT UConn right at the start of the conference schedule. Guess they were paying back for two years of UConn playing football in Yulman. Especially when you have four scho...

Re: Mike Dunleavy will be Tulane's new BB coach
I LOVE the way Dannen is so transparent about his process! He talked about what he was looking for, about getting the call regarding Dunleavy, about meeting him in NYC, etc, etc. It makes you feel like he's including us in the process, which is how alums and fans SHOULD feel.DrBox wrote:He killed the PC

Re: Telling of Dickson's Tenure
If you read what I said, I said "may have taken a bit", not 18 months. We have no idea how much time was spent behind the scenes breaking up the Cowen Cartel, once he did wrap his head around it. Once he figured out how, he's acted. At this point I'm satisfied with the direction. Lets hope...

Re: Mike Dunleavy will be Tulane's new BB coach
After watching the Introductory Press Conference there should be no doubt that this is an incredible hire for Tulane. I even enjoyed the subtle swipe that Fitts and Dannen took at their predecessors. Dunleavy is connected in the basketball community all over the world. He is going to bring unpreced...

Did I say anything questioning the fact that the coaches were focused on "other stuff" DURING Easter? You don't expect them to have perfect execution the first day back, but you expect them to be active and have energy. And I believe that's what CWF expected as well, and it must have been ...

I would give Fitts the benefit of the doubt. Remember, there were bigger messes to clean up than athletics. And it may have taken a bit to realize that he was going to have to fight his way through the Cowen politics to accomplish his own vision. Once he wrapped his head around just how big a mess i...

Re: Mike Dunleavy will be Tulane's new BB coach
A sense of humor from TD.. Troy Dannen @TU_Dannen 3h3 hours ago We shall overcome this! Fear the Wave @FearTheWaveBlog My only knock against Dunleavy at this point is that he has never coached at Sam Houston St. Going in with open mind though. https://twitter.com/TU_Dannen/status/714481509248315393
